Ben Yedder set to eclipse Gameiro's goalscoring at Sevilla
The striker has scored eight goals in just nine league starts and appears to be an excellent replacment for Kevin Gameiro. France-England live
Wissam Ben Yedder scored a hat-trick yesterday to ensure Sevilla landed all three points in their game against Real Sociedad. The attacker, who joined from Toulouse in the summer, surpassed Kevin Gameiro in the goalscoring charts and many of the worry surrounding the Frenchman's replacement have subsided. Gameiro has landed seven goals while Ben Yedder now has eight along with two assists.
Gameiro's goals
Ben Yedder has already scored 15 goals this season and looks set to eclipse Gameuiro's 16 goals in LaLiga last season. Given Sampaoli's rotation, Ben Yedder has only started in nine games in the league this season and it gives further credence to the belief that Ben Yedder is an excellent replacement for Gameiro.
Meanwhile, Sevilla are looking to reinforce at the striker position with Monchi looking at bringing in Stevan Jovetic.
